    New Zealand can pick up points away against Sri Lanka and India over the next two months.

    Preceding that is a one-off maiden test against Afghanistan which begins in Greater Noida near Delhi from 4.30pm, although rain is forecast amid temperatures in the low 30s.

    Batter Kane Williamson says this fixture will provide a build-up to the WTC proper.
